I am just testing the waters here...
I have a number of sets of adaptor brackets which would allow you to fit a BBK to the front of the Z3M. Once you have the brackets you will have 2 options:
1. Porsche 993 Turbo front calipers, Porsche 993 Turbo front 2-piece 322mm x 32mm discs with custom hats - I can supply them too. That's a set up offered by MovIT at a cost in excess of £2k. Currently fitted on my brother's Z3MC
2. Porsche 996 Carerra calipers, BMW Z4M/BMW E46 CSL 345mm x 28mm front discs. This was developed on my Z4MC and then trial fitted on my brother's G-Power Z3MC
Advantages of Option 1:
- biggest Porsche pad short of a 6-piston GT2/GT3 caliper
- thick discs
- already proven by MovIT
Disadvanatges:
- sourcing 993 Turbo calipers
- you have to buy hats to fit the 993 Turbo 2-piece discs
Advantages of Option 2:
- easy to source 996 Carrera calipers
- easy to source OEM BMW Z4M/CSL discs
- no need to buy custom hats
Disadvantages of Option 2:
- smaller pad area
- slightly thinner discs
The brackets are CNC machined from steel and come pre-drilled to fit the hubs of the Z3MC. I will also supply high tensile steel caliper bolts to fit either the 993 or 996 caliper and they are included in the price.
£150 per set of adaptor brackets, to include bolts and postage? I think it sounds fair. Will come with PDF instructions on instalation or happy to install them myself if you drop by.
That way, you can assemble your own BBK for a lot less - £150 for brackets, £260 for discs, £300 for calipers = £710
If you think this post should be elsewhere please move it and apologies if I have broken any forum rules.
Thanks,
Alex
